Description
This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Sale at Race Retro 2025 - Competition Cars on Saturday the 22nd of February, Stoneleigh Park, Stoneleigh Rd, Coventry, CV8 2LG. Offered here is a very competitive and well prepared Corvette C3 that has formed part of our vendor's impressive racing stable since 2007. The car has been raced successfully across Europe in many prestigious championships and the FIA/ HTP papers are valid until 31st December 2029.
Prepared to the highest standards with an excellent reliability record by Richard Moore, the car is accompanied by a substantial spares package, the details of which can be sent to interested parties upon request. Motivation is courtesy of an all-aluminium ZL1 V8 (most engines are iron) with ported GM aluminium heads, GM aluminium block, steel crank, Oliver Billet rods, JE pistons, a high-rise dual plane, hand-built Holley carb and a 4-stage dry-sump including valley scavenge. Output is a conservative 650bhp and 600lb/ ft of torque. The eagle-eyed amongst you will notice a rather impressive silencer system currently fitted to suit the rather strict UK circuit noise restrictions and the car is described by the seller (bar the usual safety and spanner checks as you would expect) as 'ready to go'.
Strikingly finished in red and white by the professional team at Normandale in Daventry, this handsome C3 Corvette FIA racer appears to offer superb value for money and in the right hands, will be very competitive, offering entry into some of the most glamorous and prestigious motorsport events around the world. A fire-breathing, 7. 4-litre, early-1970s Corvette that would be welcome anywhere.
